“…Airborne occupational dermatitis caused by acrylates has been reported in dental staff. [21][22][23] Among students with skin symptoms, 65.7% attributed these to wearing protective gloves, with no difference between use of nitrile rubber and latex gloves. There was an increase in Type I latex allergy in healthcare workers in the late 1980s and early 1990s, due to the increased demand for latex protective gloves and poor manufacturing control.…”

Skin reactions among Bulgarian dental students: A self‐report questionnaire survey

et al. 2019

Background Dental students are at high risk of developing adverse skin reactions following practical work during the dentistry degree program. They encounter multiple irritants and allergens that may cause skin reactions on exposed parts of the body, notably the hands. Objectives To estimate the prevalence of skin reactions related to the pre‐clinical and clinical training courses of the dentistry program and associated risk factors in Bulgarian dental students. Method A cross‐sectional study was performed using a self‐report questionnaire. Results A total of 467 dental students completed the questionnaire (response 51.8%). The prevalence of self‐reported skin symptoms was 21.2%. According to logistic regression analysis, the most important risk factors for work‐related skin symptoms were a personal history of atopic dermatitis (odds ratio [OR] 3.92, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.99‐7.72), allergic rhinoconjunctivitis and/or asthma (OR 1.94, 95%CI: 1.03‐3.68), personal history of contact allergy (OR 2.19, 95%CI: 1.06‐4.55), and hand washing >16 times a day (OR 2.42, 95%CI: 1.06‐5.52). Conclusions The results of this study suggest that work‐related skin symptoms are frequent among dental students and indicate the need to establish effective primary preventive programs for occupational skin disorders at a national level.

“…Occupational contact dermatitis (OCD) represents up to 48.3% of workrelated diseases with different percentages in relation to insurance system characteristics. 1,2 One of the most affected occupations is the hairdressing profession, 3 due to workplace exposure to multiple of sensitizing substances and irritating agents 4,5 in combination with wet work known to induce or aggravate other skin disorders. 6,7 Wet work, including frequent hand and hair washing, damp hair handling, and glove wearing, is the most frequent irritant exposure.…”

Characteristics and incidence of contact dermatitis among hairdressers in north‐eastern Italy

et al. 2020

Background: Hairdressers are at high risk of contact dermatitis (CD) due to skin exposure to numerous irritants and haptens in hair products in combination with frequent wet work. Objectives: To investigate the characteristics and incidence of CD among hairdressers in northeastern Italy. Methods: A total of 324 hairdressers who had been examined and patch tested in northeastern Italy from 1996 to 2016 were retrospectively identified, and compared with 9669 matched controls. Sensitization to allergens of the hairdressing series was analysed among hairdressers attending an occupational medicine clinic in Trieste, Italy. Incidence data were calculated from 1999 to 2016. Results: Sensitization to p-phenylenediamine, thiuram mix, and N-isopropyl-N'-phenylp-phenylenediamine was significantly associated with hairdressing and with hand/forearms dermatitis. Frequent sensitizers from hairdressing series were ammonium persulfate, toluene-2,5-diamine, and p-aminobenzene. The overall incidence of CD declined from 2003 (31.7 cases/10 000 workers) to 2016 (20.8 cases/10 000 workers). Conclusions: Sensitization to several haptens was significantly associated with hairdressing. The incidence of CD among hairdressers in northeastern Italy has declined in recent years, but is still high. Preventive efforts are needed to reduce the burden of CD in this professional group.

“…These enzymes are responsible for the formation of the correct collagen molecule, the main protein responsible for maintaining the skin mechanical properties [12][13][14]. There have also been reports demonstrating the specific role of tocopherol (vitamin E) in scarring and wound healing processes [15]. This compound is also involved in the stabilization of biological membranes and, is also a strong antioxidant.…”

Development of biotechnology, esthetic medicine and cosmetology can enable us to slow down or delay the skin aging process. Currently, much attention is aimed at treatments using substances of plant origin. They have been proven to exhibit antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal properties, accelerate wound healing, moisturize the skin, enhance skin renewal processes and protect skin against UV radiation. Biologically active plant-derived compounds, however, are often produced by plants in very small amounts. A solution to this problem is an in vitro culture of callus tissue, representing plant stem cells. Both, in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated beneficial effects of plants stem cell extracts on human skin in the battle against ageing. The aim of this paper was to provide a review of studies based on the use of plant stem cells in limiting skin ageing.
